How many 'normal' barrowfuls would you say it holds Heather - and how easy is it to tip?
Does it tip the contents out completely or do you have to scrape out any of it?
Finally, how much is it?!

That looks a fantastic gadget! I'd been thinking of investing in a paddock sweeper for a while but the risk of grass sickness haad put me off. I'd also be very interested to hear how much it cost.

It took me a bit to understand this is a pooh vac. Heather, can you tell me how this one is supposed to be better than others in the face of grass sickness? Have they discovered the triggers??
I'm ever so pleased you've found something to help you easily clear your fields. ;D Its tempting me to get other equines! ;D

I think the grass sickness factor is to do with disturbing the soil and therefore contaminating the grass.
I still like my Predator even though I'm not using it at the mo because the hose keeps splitting, if they could sort the hose durability it would be great, I suspect that that Muck Truck wouldn't cope with my slope (I haven't check the spec though).
Glad you've found something that works for you Heather

We have the sweeper version, a logic poo hoover and that is a wonder and major time saver for us.
We can keep on top of all our fields without too much stress each week, it tags on the back of our quad so is a bit of a machine but i love it. It is also great for picking up loose grass etc, we've just topped a lot of our fields and it just follows the tractor around and soon picks up the deep piles of it so it doesn't get chance to lay in the fields.
The sweeper works for us as its a major time saver as well as work saver which is essential when we're clearing nearly 30 horses worth of poo from the fields each week.
